Book excerpt: Os organizadores desta coletânea estão engajados em pesquisar as relações entre Cidadania, Democracia e o Estado brasileiro. Pesquisadores da área de Direitos Humanos com perspectivas interdisciplinares, os professores que integram essa coletânea têm como interesse comum a pesquisa da educação popular nas regiões urbanas demarcadas por grandes diferenças sociais. Sendo assim, o presente livro estuda os desafios contemporâneos postos ao Estado Democrático quanto à questão da educação inclusiva, tendo como foco o alcance de populações tradicionalmente desassistidas pela educação formal por se inscreverem na história como sujeitos em condições especiais, tais como: moradores de bairros periféricos, trabalhadores, mulheres, cidadãos com necessidades especiais etc. Assim, para além desses traços de necessária inclusão, a obra também traz importantes estudos de caso sobre participação popular na política. Os organizadores pertencem a três instituições universitárias com programas de pós-graduação stricto sensu vinculados à temática e que têm seu corpo docente empenhado em pesquisar temas sobre educação e cidadania. Logo, além de se interpor como importante eixo temático de pesquisa, uma vez que tensiona os estudos bibliográficos da área, a obra também faz um atual processo de interlocação de saberes, tanto nos espaços educativos não formais com a área, quanto nos elementos mais capilares que a circundam. Com isso o livro objetiva a mediação crítica e cidadã.

Book Synopsis A democracia inesperada by : Bernardo Sorj
Download or read book A democracia inesperada written by Bernardo Sorj and published by Jorge Zahar Editor Ltda. This book was released on 2004 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O mundo da política hoje se bifurca entre um Estado que administra sem utopias e utopias que se afastam dos problemas de administração do Estado. Diante da crise dos sistemas de representação político-partidários, provocada pela desintegração dos ideais socialistas e pela diminuição da importância dos sindicatos, novas identidades coletivas se firmaram. Como a sociedade não pode viver sem marcos explicativos que ofereçam um sentido à ação social, motivem as pessoas, organizem suas percepções dos acontecimentos e justifiquem seus atos, as ONGs assumiram o papel de catalisadores da ação coletiva. Apesar de contribuírem para a renovação e disseminação dos valores democráticos, sua eficácia para diminuir a desigualdade social gerada pelo mercado e pelo retraimento do Estado é limitada. Defendendo uma visão enriquecedora da democracia e da cidadania, em 'A Democracia Inesperada', o sociólogo Bernardo Sorj analisa criticamente esse paradoxo representado, por um lado, pela crescente expansão da sociedade civil e, por outro lado, pela sua limitada eficácia para diminuir a desigualdade social.

Book Synopsis Schooling for Success by : Laura Randall
Download or read book Schooling for Success written by Laura Randall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The link between economic development and education in Latin America is generally well-recognized. A literate and educated work force is the largest single factor in explaining economic growth. In this study, the editors and contributors survey the various elementary educational systems to investigate the reasons behind the failure of schools to retain students in elementary grades. A group of scholars looks at the current state of education in four countries: Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, and Chile, with a view to designing more effective programs for reducing the dropout and grade repetition rates. For each country studied, there is an overview of the school system, teacher training and attitudes, centralized and decentralized planning, curriculum development, and psychological and environmental issues that contribute to school dropout.
Book Synopsis Challenging Social Inequality by : Miguel Carter
Download or read book Challenging Social Inequality written by Miguel Carter and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2015-05-23 with total page 631 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Challenging Social Inequality, an international and interdisciplinary group of scholars and development workers explores the causes, consequences, and contemporary reactions to Brazil's sharply unequal agrarian structure. They focus on the Landless Rural Workers Movement (MST)—Latin America's largest and most prominent social movement—and its ongoing efforts to confront historic patterns of inequality in the Brazilian countryside. Several essays provide essential historical background for understanding the MST. They examine Brazil's agrarian structure, state policies, and the formation of rural civil-society organizations. Other essays build on a frequently made distinction between the struggle for land and the struggle on the land. The first refers to the mobilization undertaken by landless peasants to demand government land redistribution. The struggle on the land takes place after the establishment of an official agricultural settlement. The main efforts during this phase are geared toward developing productive and meaningful rural communities. The last essays in the collection are wide-ranging analyses of the MST, which delve into the movement's relations with recent governments and its impact on other Brazilian social movements. In the conclusion, Miguel Carter appraises the future of agrarian reform in Brazil. Contributors. José Batista Gonçalves Afonso, Sonia Maria P..P.

Book Synopsis Beyond Civil Society by : Sonia E. Alvarez
Download or read book Beyond Civil Society written by Sonia E. Alvarez and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-18 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributors to Beyond Civil Society argue that the conventional distinction between civic and uncivic protest, and between activism in institutions and in the streets, does not accurately describe the complex interactions of forms and locations of activism characteristic of twenty-first-century Latin America. They show that most contemporary political activism in the region relies upon both confrontational collective action and civic participation at different moments. Operating within fluid, dynamic, and heterogeneous fields of contestation, activists have not been contained by governments or conventional political categories, but rather have overflowed their boundaries, opening new democratic spaces or extending existing ones in the process. These essays offer fresh insight into how the politics of activism, participation, and protest are manifest in Latin America today while providing a new conceptual language and an interpretive framework for examining issues that are critical for the future of the region and beyond.

Book Synopsis Social Policy Dismantling and De-democratization in Brazil by : Sonia Fleury
Download or read book Social Policy Dismantling and De-democratization in Brazil written by Sonia Fleury and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-22 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the emergence of authoritarian populist regimes, analyzing Brazil as a case study. The authors explain how the tactics employed by the Bolsonaro administration to dismantle bureaucracy and public policies, especially labour and social policies, find expression in the fiscal austerity measures recently inscribed in the Federal Constitution: a counter-democratic device employed by technical and financial elites to systemically derail the social protection system. Through this in-depth case study, the book presents new theoretical arguments and concepts that can be useful to understand the dynamics of such new regimes, and discussing similar cases in other contexts. Democratic governments in Brazil, driven by social movements and political actors, have strengthened social protection through a distinctive institutional architecture that combines the strengthening of public bureaucracies, the creation of intergovernmental networks, and the democratic instances of social participation and agreement. The contributions throughout this volume analyze these transformations in different sectors of public policy, such as labour, employment, pensions, food and nutrition security, health, and social assistance. Each contribution discusses the recent trajectory through a political analysis of the main actors and institutions, reform processes and policy changes, and the results achieved. Finally, the existing weaknesses in each of these social protection sectors are identified in the context of the literature on policy dismantling, revealing the strategies used to take advantage of these political and institutional weaknesses. This book will appeal to students, scholars, and researchers of political science and public policy, interested in a better understanding of de-democratization by social policy dismantling.
Book Synopsis Biopolitics and Resistance in Legal Education by : Thomas Giddens
Download or read book Biopolitics and Resistance in Legal Education written by Thomas Giddens and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking up the study of legal education in distinctly biopolitical terms, this book provides a critical and political analysis of resistance in the law school. Legal education concerns the complex pathways by which an individual becomes a lawyer, making the journey from lay-person to expert, from student to practitioner. To pose the idea of a biopolitics of legal education is not only to recognise the tensions surrounding this journey but also to recognise that legal education is a key site in which the subject engages, and is engaged by, a particular structure—and here the particular structure of the law school. This book explores the resistance to that structure, including: different ways in which law’s pedagogic structures might be incomplete, or are being fought against; the use of less conventional elements of cultural discourse to resist the abstraction of the lawyer in students’ subject formation; the centralisation of queer and feminist discourses to disrupt the hierarchies of the legal curriculum; the use of digital technologies; the place of embodiment in legal education settings; and the impacts of posthuman knowledges and contexts on legal learning. Assembling original, field-defining essays by both leading international scholars and emerging researchers, this book constitutes an indispensable resource in legal education research and scholarship that will appeal to legal academics everywhere.
Book Synopsis Evolution of Dam Policies by : Waltina Scheumann
Download or read book Evolution of Dam Policies written by Waltina Scheumann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-03-11 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Commission on Dams (WCD) report (2000) “Dams and Development: A New Framework for Decision-Making” set a landmark in the ongoing controversy over large dams. Now that more than ten years have passed, one has to realize that the WCD norms matter. However, their real chance of becoming implemented relies on whether their core values, strategic priorities and guidelines are accepted by national decision-makers and are translated into official policies and practices. The book’s major concern is whether the big hydropower states have improved their standards for environment and resettlement, and whether international standards are applied or exist only on paper. The introductory and synthesis chapters present the methodological approach and discuss the findings. Other chapters analyze changes in dam policies in the big hydropower states Brazil, China, India and Turkey; the role of non-governmental organizations in advocating against the Turkish Ilisu Dam project on the Tigris River; the strategies of International Rivers and World Wildlife Fund for Nature in the global hydropower game; the policies of the German government and its positioning in the dam debate, and the engagement of Chinese actors in building the Bui Dam (Ghana) and the Kamchay Dam (Cambodia).
Book Synopsis Land, Protest, and Politics by : Gabriel Ondetti
Download or read book Land, Protest, and Politics written by Gabriel Ondetti and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brazil is a country of extreme inequalities, one of the most important of which is the acute concentration of rural land ownership. In recent decades, however, poor landless workers have mounted a major challenge to this state of affairs. A broad grassroots social movement led by the Movement of Landless Rural Workers (MST) has mobilized hundreds of thousands of families to pressure authorities for land reform through mass protest. This book explores the evolution of the landless movement from its birth during the twilight years of Brazil&’s military dictatorship through the first government of Luiz In&ácio Lula da Silva. It uses this case to test a number of major theoretical perspectives on social movements and engages in a critical dialogue with both contemporary political opportunity theory and Mancur Olson&’s classic economic theory of collective action. Ondetti seeks to explain the major moments of change in the landless movement's growth trajectory: its initial emergence in the late 1970s and early 80s, its rapid takeoff in the mid-1990s, its acute but ultimately temporary crisis in the early 2000s, and its resurgence during Lula's first term in office. He finds strong support for the influential, but much-criticized political opportunity perspective. At the same time, however, he underscores some of the problems with how political opportunity has been conceptualized in the past. The book also seeks to shed light on the anomalous fact that the landless movement continued to expand in the decade following the restoration of Brazilian democracy in 1985 despite the general trend toward social-movement decline. His argument, which highlights the unusual structure of incentives involved in the struggle for land in Brazil, casts doubt on a key assumption underlying Olson's theory.
Book Synopsis Sustaining Activism by : Jeffrey W. Rubin
Download or read book Sustaining Activism written by Jeffrey W. Rubin and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-18 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1986, a group of young Brazilian women started a movement to secure economic rights for rural women and transform women's roles in their homes and communities. Together with activists across the country, they built a new democracy in the wake of a military dictatorship. In Sustaining Activism, Jeffrey W. Rubin and Emma Sokoloff-Rubin tell the behind-the-scenes story of this remarkable movement. As a father-daughter team, they describe the challenges of ethnographic research and the way their collaboration gave them a unique window into a fiery struggle for equality. Starting in 2002, Rubin and Sokoloff-Rubin traveled together to southern Brazil, where they interviewed activists over the course of ten years. Their vivid descriptions of women’s lives reveal the hard work of sustaining a social movement in the years after initial victories, when the political way forward was no longer clear and the goal of remaking gender roles proved more difficult than activists had ever imagined. Highlighting the tensions within the movement about how best to effect change, Sustaining Activism ultimately shows that democracies need social movements in order to improve people’s lives and create a more just society.
